kalpz Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 Hi Starlight This is something I would do just to make sure everything is working from the Uniform Server point of view. Inside the w:\www folder create a new folder called 'test'. Now try browse to that using your dydns domain. Let me know your results. Kalpz -------------------------EDIT: It seems as though your Livebox router accepts public port 80 access. Some routers have a webserver which has public port 80 access. I think this is the problem. Try changing this port to 81 so your Uniform Server can listen on Port 80 and not your Router.

starlight Posted March 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Hi Kalpz, I think your right that the livebox has taken over port 80, creating a folder text an putting an index file in it just displays 404.Another sign is that the dydns address immediately requires password - which is the livebox passwords not any passwords i have created for my localserver or anything. so i need to try to change port of livebox - any help for this also appreciated.Thanks Starlight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Try this go to: http://www.whatismyip.org/ Pick up your IP address xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx Now go to: http://www.google.com/translate_t?langpair=fr|en At the bottom of the page type in a test page as suggested by Kalpz: http://xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx/test.html The above guarantees external access is your page translated. Or do you get this: The requested URL / test.html was not found on this server. The problem I have is no router will grab port 80 it just listens. The livebox may be an exception trying to make things easy for a user! Not knowing what this box is try the following link: http://portforward.com/english/routers/por...ebox/Apache.htm I apologise for the intrusion All the bestRic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalpz Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Hi RicAny external access goes to his LiveBox router's Webserver, which runs on Port 80. I don't think any configuration changes to US will help.. UNLESS you change US's listening port number. Though I never liked that because sometimes it would display the port number in the address bar.. Do you want to PM either me or Ric the address so we can have a look inside the LiveBox and find out how to change it's port number?
